Christmas music comprises a variety of genres of music normally performed or heard around the Christmas season, which tends to begin in the months leading up to the actual holiday and end in the weeks shortly thereafter.

"Please Come Home for Christmas" is a Christmas song, released in 1960, by the American blues singer and pianist Charles Brown. Hitting Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in December 1961, the tune Brown co-wrote with Gene Redd peaked at position #76. It appeared on the Christmas Singles chart for nine seasons, hitting #1 in 1972. It includes a number of characteristics of Christmas music, such as multiple references in the lyrics to the Christmas season and Christmas traditions, and the use of a Church bell type sound, created using a piano, at the start of the song. It is sometimes referred to as "Bells Will Be Ringing", which are the first four words of the song.

Metal Health
Studio album by Quiet Riot
Released	March 11, 1983 August 28, 2001 (Bonus tracks)
Recorded	1982, The Pasha Music House, Hollywood
Genre	Heavy metal, glam metal
Length	40:57
Label	Pasha/Sony/Columbia

Quiet Riot chronology
Quiet Riot II (1978) Metal Health (1983) Condition Critical (1984)

Metal Health is the third studio album by American heavy metal band Quiet Riot. It was released on March 11, 1983, bolstered by the #5 hit "Cum on Feel the Noize" and the #31 hit "Metal Health". Metal Health is notable for being the first heavy metal album to reach the #1 spot on the Billboard 200. It knocked The Police's Synchronicity out of #1 in the US. The album went on to sell more than six million copies and is considered a classic among heavy metal fans. Some critics, such as Allmusic, describe it as a one-hit wonder, owing to Quiet Riot's relative lack of critical and commercial success with following albums (and subsequent disintegration) towards the end of the 1980s. The title track was ranked #35 on VH1's 40 Greatest Metal Songs

Finally after nine long years of waiting a new album by one of my favorite bands.

A Perfect Circle.

Lead singer is Maynard James Keenan from Tool who I love.

The rest of the band is made up of Billy Howerdel and others as it's changes often.

The new single is "By and Down" and is a haunting ballad with Keenan's amazing vocals.
